I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart.
I want to learn to rope and ride.
I want to ride o'er the plains and the deserts
Out West of the Great Di-vide.
I want to hear the coyotes howlin'
While the sun sinks in the West.
I want to be a cowboy's sweet-heart,
That's the life I love the best.

I want to ride old paint, gonna on the run
I wanna feel the wind in my face
A thousand miles from all the city lights
Go at a cowhands pace
I wanna pillow my head, near the sleeping heard
While the moon shine down from above
I wanna strum my guitar oh de la tee he
Oh thats the life I love.
I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart.
I want to learn to rope and ride.
I want to ride o'er the plains and the deserts
Out West of the Great Di-vide.
I want to hear the coyotes howlin'
While the sun sinks in the West.
I want to be a cowboy's sweet-heart,
That's the life I love the best.
